After Divorce: Why My Aloof Ex Starts Chasing Me?
Chapter 192 Spending Money on Shen Qingqing
CHAPTER 192: CHAPTER 192 SPENDING MONEY ON SHEN QINGQING
Maybe it was because Zhou Hansheng was mentioned, but that night Shen Qingqing actually dreamed of him.
For the first time going abroad, though everything was unfamiliar, with language barriers, Zhou Hansheng was very happy.
Not only because he met Shen Qingqing, but more so because he had the opportunity to learn and communicate professionally.
Zhou Hansheng knew a bit of foreign languages, but far from Shen Qingqing's level.
Communicating with others was quite tough.
Shen Qingqing was moved by his efforts. To help him improve his language skills, she would pull him for English chats whenever he was free.
And indeed, he made rapid progress.
Before long, he could communicate fluently with others.
Zhou Hansheng truly loved his career, just like her.
So, he hoped Shen Qingqing would compromise and stay abroad with him.
But Shen Qingqing wanted to return home.
She wanted to fulfill her own ideals.
Wanted to support herself, to live a life that felt more worthwhile.
From this point, they began to have differences...
After waking up, Shen Qingqing felt a bit dazed.
But she didn't regret the decision she made.
The result now is the best path between her and Zhou Hansheng.
Being together, occasional compromises can stabilize the relationship. But if she sacrificed her own life and career, Shen Qingqing pessimistically thought, after decades, this could become the fuse for conflicts.
Once it erupts, it could ruin them both utterly.
The current state is better.
No one is delayed.
Shen Qingqing's dorm room was small, but the bed was soft and warm. Shi Yu lay in the bed, not wanting to get up even after dawn.
Enviously, she said, "If I were living a life like yours, I wouldn't want to get married either."
Shen Qingqing lay on her side, teasing her, "Someone with a happy family life, are you just trying to make me envious?"
Shi Yu: "Why not let us switch?"
Shen Qingqing's mouth twitched, "Does Mr. Chen know you have this kind of thought?"
Shi Yu laughed so hard her body shook.
Finally calming down with difficulty, "I wouldn't dare say that. If Jiang Zhixun knew, he'd probably eat us both up!"
Mentioning this person again early in the morning, Shen Qingqing sighed helplessly.
Isn't this guy like a plaster that won't come off?
Otherwise, why can't you shake him off!
On a cold day, the two chatted snuggled in bed. Since getting married, Shi Yu had hardly had such a leisurely time.
Even though Chen Shaojie treated her very well.
She was also quite satisfied with her current marital status.
But that did not stop her from envying Shen Qingqing's life.
"Well, as long as the Jiang Family elders don't push him to get married, you guys can just keep waiting."
Shen Qingqing: "If he wanted to marry, he wouldn't have trouble finding someone."
Even without the Jiang Family as backing, with Jiang Zhixun's skills, there wouldn't be a shortage of women who like him.
If he were utterly worthless, no matter how good-looking, she wouldn't have liked him back then.
Now, although a bit older, when he isn't annoying, he's quite steady in his work. That face is becoming more charming.
Plenty of women like him.
Shi Yu blinked, "Are you really okay with him marrying someone else?"
Shen Qingqing gave a non-answer, "We're not related."
Shi Yu snorted, "If I were to divorce Chen Shaojie, I definitely wouldn't want
him marrying someone else."
Shen Qingqing knew she was joking.
Purposely teased her, "So possessive?"
"Of course! If I don't want it, I also won't let others have it."
Shen Qingqing mockingly remarked, "Is your Mr. Chen an object?"
"He's not an object."
Shi Yu didn't even think before saying that.
Only after did she realize something was off, reaching to pinch Shen Qingqing's
waist.
Shen Qingqing, being ticklish, quickly tried to dodge.
The two of them ended up wrestling in bed.
Jiang Zhixun was holding the little one standing at the door, Chen Shaojie
waiting downstairs for them.
Hearing the laughter and noise, the little one, once on the ground, impatiently knocked on the door, "Mom, let me in!"
Shen Qingqing laughed until her waist hurt, but still had to hold back, getting
up to dress.
She didn't know who was outside, but once the door opened, everything inside the room would be exposed. It was better to dress properly before opening the
door.
Shi Yu thought the same.
Quickly dressing and tidying the bed, then going to open the door.
Looking down, she saw her son.
Jiang Zhixun stood far away, like he was avoiding suspicion.
"Where's Chen Shaojie?"
"Downstairs."
Jiang Zhixun was sparing with words. This was how he commonly acted in
front of others.
Shi Yu was used to it, picked up her son, and brought him into the room.
She let him sit on a single-seater sofa, cautioning, "Be good, don't touch
auntie's things."
"Okay, okay!"
The little one nodded vigorously, his eyes darting around, curiously exploring
this unfamiliar place.
Wriggling his butt on the sofa, then bouncing once.
So soft indeed!
Shen Qingqing got him some milk candy, then found a picture album, "Wait for
us a bit."
"Oh."
The little one excitedly swung his legs, impatiently stuffing a piece of milk
candy into his mouth.
Then seriously flipped through the picture book.
The bathroom was outside, and no one was there to watch the little one,
leaving Shen Qingqing a bit uneasy.
Granted Jiang Zhixun permission to enter the room.
"Keep an eye on him."
Jiang Zhixun raised an eyebrow, "I get no benefit?"
Shen Qingqing: "Then leave, let Mr. Chen come up to watch him."
The man fell silent, sat at the desk, and focused on the little one with
unwavering eyes.
His demeanor was of someone earnestly executing a task.
Shen Qingqing's lips moved. Considering the child present, she swallowed the
words of cursing back down.
Shi Yu witnessed everything.
Suddenly, she somewhat understood why Qingqing's attitude had softened.
This Jiang Zhixun really was shameless!
A man pursuing a woman, separated by a mountain.
This mountain... might be worn flat by him!
After leaving the school, they first went to have breakfast. Hearing that his wife
wanted to shop, Chen Shaojie raised both hands in favor.
After having a child, his wife had always been centered around them both. Now that she finally wanted to dress up, it would be too bastardly not to support
that.
"Anyway, we'll stay in Beijing for a few more days, then take the little one out to
play."
Shi Yu followed along, as long as he didn't find shopping boring, it was fine.
As for Jiang Zhixun, wherever Shen Qingqing was, that's where he'd be; it was
beyond saying.
With time still early, the breakfast could be savored slowly.
Thinking how Shi Yu and the others had managed to come back, Shen Qingqing
ordered a large table of food.
Soy milk, fried dough sticks, tofu pudding, sesame biscuits... A great variety.
Large portions, sharing a bit of each, ensured both good eating and fullness.
Compared to before, life truly had become easier.
As they ate, Shi Yu gave Chen Shaojie a look.
Understanding the cue, Chen Shaojie went to the counter to pay while they ate.
Shen Qingqing hurriedly put down the spoon; she ordered many things, and
since Chen Shaojie and his group came from afar, how could they bear the
cost?
The man beside her casually got up, "I'll go, you continue eating."
In the end, Jiang Zhixun paid for breakfast.
At the mall, for things Shen Qingqing wanted, he paid.
The action of taking out his wallet was quick and straightforward.
The more Shen Qingqing spent, the happier he was, eager to give all his money
to her.
This is how a man should be, generous.
Shi Yu's impression of Jiang Zhixun improved slightly again, and if reconciliation were to happen, Qingqing likely wouldn't suffer any injustice.
"Shi Yu?"
A hesitant call came from behind.
Shi Yu hesitated for a moment, didn't turn around, and even quickened her
steps.
